Why is Manchester United v Charlton Athletic not on TV this evening?

Manchester United take on Charlton Athletic this evening in the quarter-final of the EFL Carabao Cup.

However, those wishing to sit down and watch the game from the comfort of their homes will be disappointed to learn that the game is not being shown on TV.

While the game will be televised in other countries such as the USA on ESPN, Irish and UK viewers will be unable to watch the game live on TV.

In a further bit of bad news, the game also cannot be streamed.

The reason for this is that Sky Sports have opted to show the all Premier League clash between Newcastle and Leicester instead.

That game kicks off at 8pm, as does the Manchester United game.

As Sky Sports are the exclusive live broadcaster of the League Cup in Ireland and the UK, there is nowhere else to watch the game.
